A new technology by TerraRad Tech has the potential to revolutionize the way we irrigate golf courses, and for the first time in history, Superintendents can look into the future and adjust irrigation with confidence.
The sensor gives Superintendents the control to:
Improve Playing Conditions—Controlling fairway moisture can provide firm and fast fairways while maintaining turf health. Firm fairways also produce more backspin on iron shots, allowing better control into the greens.
- Longer drives
- Better spin and holding power into greens
Improve Efficiencies—Knowing where wet and dry spots form can reduce the amount of time scouting for these elusive areas. Workers can use the maps to pinpoint irrigation adjustments, hand water locations, or locate irrigation malfunctions.
- Know when wet and dry spots are developing before they become a problem
- Educate and train staff on when and how much water to apply
Develop Moisture Standards—In a drought-stricken area, or if your players want the course to play firmer, having an average of over 10,000 moisture measures at a 4-inch depth per hole can provide an accurate way of measuring progress.
- Measure progress from scan to scan
- Easy reporting to boards, committees, and municipalities
Maybe You Can Save Water—We aren't going to claim you can save 20% on water—everyone already does that—but what we can tell you is that these sensors will allow you to apply water evenly, making playing conditions more consistent from hole-to-hole and day-to-day. (As a side note, we have yet to have a course scan and conclude they aren't watering enough.)
